Help & Advice

New at Maternitique are two types of deodorant for pregnancy: one is a spray; the other a stick. Both are free of parabens, phthalates, BPA, propylene glycol and other petroleum products, as well as artificial fragrances to offer all-natural, all-day odor protection without worry for moms-to-be about hormonally disruptive or carcinogenic chemicals absorbing into your bloodstream.

The new Lafe’s Organic Mother-To-Be Deodorant Spray relies on only three, all-natural ingredients to provide odor prevention and protection: water, certified organic aloe, and certified organic mineral salts.
Packaged in a plastic bottle that’s guaranteed to be free of BPA or other estrogenic plasticizers, Lafe’s Organic Mother-To-Be Deodorant Spray is an excellent choice for women who would prefer spray-on convenience and a completely fragrance-free deodorant for pregnancy. The natural mineral salts inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria on your skin, thus preventing odors from beginning.

Similarly, the All-Natural Pregnancy Deodorant from Fairhaven Health also works to prevent odors from beginning by discouraging bacterial growth. In addition to being in a stick form, however, All-Natural Pregnancy Deodorant relies on herbal extracts and witch hazel to deter bacteria. This product is also fragrance-free and comes in non-estrogenic packaging.

Both types of deodorant for pregnancy are also suitable for women who are trying to conceive, postpartum, or for anyone who wants safe, all-natural deodorant, including the whole family.

Because they work through bacterial growth prevention for odor protection, both types of deodorant for pregnancy should be applied on clean, dry skin. Extensive perspiration will wash away the topical treatment, so more applications will be necessary after exercise, swimming or bathing.
